About 18 months ago I started using Letterboxd. Also, I like Roger Ebert's reviews. I wanted both in one place. So I wrote some code to scrape his nearly 8000 reviews from rogerebert.com and then import them to letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/re2/ (I only put the first two paragraphs of his review on letterboxd then link to his full review on his site.) The hard parts of this were: - Extracting the text of his reviews correctly from his site's HTML. That wasn't too terrible though. - Matching his reviews to the correct movies on TMDB. This just required a bunch of trial and error and about 20-30 manual corrections. I employed various strategies to match by using movie title, year of review, year of movie release (if on his review, but often off by a year or two), director, producer, cast if on his review. I also built this for myself:

https://github.com/jaysoffian/eap_proxy I should put my bin directory full of random scripts up on GitHub. I tend to build them as I need them. They're often very simple things like: - jqpaste -- which is just "pbaste | jq" - jsonl [jq|gron --stream] which takes it input and if it isn'v valid JSON, converts it to a JSON string so that I can paste random log output which is sometimes a mix of JSON and not into jq or gron. Those are just a couple off the top of my head.
In Ask HN: Tools you have made for yourself?
If you are willing to move to Ubiquiti hardware (recommended, security breach from today notwithstanding) there's a relatively straightforward bypass method where the authentication packets are forwarded from the ONT to the AT&T box but it's otherwise out of the loop, and you have fully native routing with the Ubiquiti USG (a really nice router and ecosystem). Instructions: https://medium.com/@mrtcve/at-t-gigabit-fiber-modem-bypass-u... Github project that makes it possible: https://github.com/jaysoffian/eap_proxy It's definitely not plug and play but I've been using this setup for a year and a half and I get my full 1gb bandwidth throughout my network with lots of hosts.
